This has never been used before in the history of Canada.
These people are so angry they are proposing Chinese/ North Korean style capital controls.
Francois-Philippe Champagne claimed on Wednesday that people come up to him at the grocery store to tell him how affordable he's made their food.
Do you think he made up this story?
JUST IN: Canadian government is now saying that there may be nothing they can do to stop the 50% US tariffs in 3 days.
Canadian diplomat warns: âIt looks like itâs going to end in tearsâ
Phase 1 of Carneyâs failure.
đšLOOK AT THE RECORDđš
You do not have to be partisan to see the problem.
Mark Carney just said we are in a stronger position now than we were 18 months ago when the Tariff war started,
Canadians were promised strength.
The results show anything but:
Received a call from a French-CBC reporter this week.
Reporter: âIâve been told that weâre no longer allowed to speak with you, and La Presse is encouraging us to distance ourselves from you because of what you wrote about media subsidies. Is that true?â
Me: âQuite possibly. La Presse and Radio-Canada are like peas and carrots: when one cancels you, the other tends to follow. Itâs unfortunateâespecially since I wholeheartedly support public broadcasting.â
When you listen to the newsâany newsâpay close attention to the experts they invite and what they say; more and more are being canceled by the public broadcaster just because we actually say what we think.
My sincere thanks to the courageous reporter who had the guts to call me and explain what was going on.

Canadaâs biggest export used to be lumber.
Then we regulated it into uncompetitiveness.
Now Canadaâs biggest export is capital.
Pension money. Investment dollars. Productive savings.
All leaving for American warehouses and German submarines.
A country that exports its capital
instead of deploying it at home
is not building a future.
Itâs funding someone elseâs.

đš The Islamic Republic admits how close it came to losing control of Mashhad, Iranâs second most populated city.
In a remarkable admission, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and regime-affiliated filmmaker Javad Moghouei acknowledged that Mashhad effectively fell for several hours on January 18, overwhelmed by the sheer scale of anti-regime demonstrations.
Even the host describes the city as having âfallenâ within hours because authorities could not contain the crowds.
Their own words underscore how massive the protests were and how unprepared the regime was to confront them. The response that followed was a brutal crackdown marked by the regime massacring over 45,000 people.
Bloomberg has the text of the bridge deal. It confirms our earlier reporting: there's no clause about money going to Canada's debt before revenues are split with the US. Only operational expenses like snowclearing are deducted. Story by @josh_wingrove https://t.co/epwdRz4D1G
